Lupa15's Privateer Press Special Edition Miniatures

The October 2019 miniature is the Brew Bearer. She is an alternate model for the Rune Bearer. Even though I don’t have a trolls army I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to paint her up nicely.

To start with I painted the base with several coats of watered down Citadel Rhinox Hide, followed by an overbrush of Citadel Gorthor Brown and a drybrush of Citadel Baneblade Brown.

The skin was achieved with a 50/50 mix of Citadel The Fang and Citadel Alaitoc Blue.  I washed only the recesses with Citadel Druchii Violet and used an all over wash of Citadel Drakenhof Nightshade.  I used the base mixture again to pick out some of the raised areas and then did a highlight of 50/50 Citadel Alaitoc Blue and Citadel Russ Grey.  The nubs on her shoulder were picked out with Citadel Nagaroth Night.

Just below is a in progress snapshot before the skin highlight and the base overbrushing.

The next step was to complete the stone runes and the mug and barrel.

To complete the stones I used Citadel Mechanicus Standard Grey washed with Citadel Agrax Earthshade. I layered the washed bits with Citadel Eshin Grey and a highlight of Citadel Stormvermin Fur.

I picked out the hair with a mix of Citadel Jokaero Orange and Citadel Mephiston Red washed with Citadel Carroburg Crimson. This was layered with Citadel Wild Rider Red.

Finally the wood was based with Citadel Dryad Bark and the rims with Citadel Balthasar Gold.  Both were washed all over with Citadel Agrax Earthshade.  The wood was gradually highlighted with Ctiadel Gorthor Brown and Citadel Baneblade Brown.  The gold rims were highlighted with Citadel Gehennas Gold.

Finally the model was finished with the leather being a 50/50 mixture of Citadel Mournfang Brown and Citadel Rhinox Hide.  This was layered with Skrag Brown and Rhinox Hide and washed with Citadel Agrax Earthshade.  This was highlighted with the previous mixture again.

The cloth was built up with thin coats of Ushabti Bone, Screaming Skull and a mixture of White Scar and Screaming Skull.

The froth was similarly built up from Citadel Karak Stone, White Scar and Karak Stone and an almost pure mixture of White Scar.
